    Hi after reading the 12 hour/enduro racing article in this months mag, has anyone actually signed up for one.

    Cause I finally went and paid my entry fee for the Ritchey Bikefest 12 hour in June. And is wondering if anyone else has been foolish enough to do this.

    Yep – This year,SO FAR,have done and signed up for!

    24hours of Strathpuffer – 16th Jan – as a pair
    10hours – 10 Under the Ben in May – as a pair
    12hour Strathpuffer Lite in June – as a solo

    Get some long rides in, get some road tyres for the mtb or on a road bike.

    Take plenty of energy foods, gels, bars, chocolate – keep hydrated.
    Make sure the bike is in top conditions and take more spares than required….

    Do worry about it – just get there and enjoy the buzz of the event!!!

    Pace yourself, you have 12 hours. If you keep going, no matter how slow, you will usually make up places, you should really lose places in the latter part of of the event.
